Hello Everyone,
Is it possible solidworks file convert into the ipt or iam ext.
With Best Regards,

If you have a Solidworks .sldprt or an .sldasm file you can open them up within a session of Inventor directly. Just change the file type in the open dialog window.
Then once open, just save it as an .ipt or .iam file.
But, with that said, what versions of Inventor and SW are we talking about? If they are too far removed (version wise) from each other then this may not work.

Or if you like something that was said and it was helpful, Kudos are appreciated. Thanks!!!!

Good point Scott, actually it should be pointed out that typically the SolidWorks file needs to have been made in a version one year (or more) older than the version of Inventor you're using. Which is another reason to just use STEP.

Inventor will do the same.

I guess that is personal preference. I know when I go to vendor websites, if they do not have Inventor models to download I will choose SW models. They load just fine. Step files do work, but in my humble opinion, you get more integrity in your model if you can load it directly (SW into Inventor and vise versa) as long as the versions are accomodating.
